CPU Usage LevelPratab, I have issues with CPU usage as well. I hear what Smirnoff is saying about needing a DX9 compliant vid card, but I have to say that something needs to be done in MP if have the menu screen on can raise the CPU usage to high levels. I personally have only an ATI Radeon 9250 in my system which is not DX9 cmpliant, though I do have the most uptodate version of DX9 installed. My system can have the CPU usage level slowly increase from 2-3% to 80% over a couple of hours after a reboot and the only thing that is on is the initial MP screen. Without MP running WinXP sits at the 2-3% level for hours. What is it about MP and DX9 compliance that is required for maintaining the main MP screen?
